This was the opening evening of the monthly ‘Cruisin’ the Port’ event. As usual, opening day brings lots of new vehicles. The weather threatened a little but it apparently didn’t make a difference.
The site is a combination of local streets, blocked off from traffic. I heard cars were assembling around 4:30p and also as usual, cars can come and go easily. Spectators were abundant and conversations were plentiful. Old friends were catching up with last year’s friends, ready to begin the new season. Some of the new players included a nice gray primed Mercury, a very clean and attractive 33/34 Ford pick-up truck, a blue blown ‘57 Chevrolet with a tilt nose, a blue reproduction ‘57 Chevrolet convertible and an interesting ‘53 Pontiac 2 dr sedan.
As a side light, I was able to run into John Cantelmo and a few of the newer members of the High Point Cruisers car club – always a good group. He was a little tied up as he was one of the judges tonight.
